The final One Day was played at the Newlands in Cape Town where South Africa won the toss and opted to bowl. England was able to make 236 in 45 overs before they were bowled out, Alex Hales was the pick of the batsmen for England as he made 112 in 128 balls with 14 fours. Rabada, Tahir and Wiese all took three wickets each. South Africa was able to chase the total in 44 overs with five wickets remaining as de Villiers made a ton.

It was a tough match for both of the teams however as SA’s side was heavier than of England from the very start of the match with some mind blowing players like, Duminy and Amla, SA won the match between SA vs England. Although during the last overs England has a chance to overcome the situation but they were unable to groom during the same.
